"The Negev, the desert that comprises the southern half of Israel, has ben the site of trade routes and civilizations from the fourth millennium B.C. Since 1952, Nelson Glueck has discovered, excavated, and mapped hundreds of lost settlements in the Negev - a whole series of civilizations that flourished and died over the centuries. In addition to earlier settlements, the author found, in the three main parts of the Negev, Judaean kingdom villages and fortresses dating from the time of King Solomon in the tenth century B.C. down to the beginning of the sixth century B.C., when Judah was destroyed by the Babylonians. Rivers in the Desert is a story of majestic adventure, which reconstructs the ancient days of the Bible and stands as a unique work of archaeological scholarship. The book is illustrated with maps and photographs."
